Do Americans Work Hard?

by The Red Recruiter on September 8, 2011

Ever wonder if Americans are hard workers?  Well, take a look and judge yourself.  Looks to me like we put in our fair share of hours.

This infographic by Business Insurance Source spells it out quite well!

    I don’t know that the HOURS of work we put in every week has anything to do with how hard we work. I know a lot of people who waste plenty of that day because they’re expected to have their butt glued to that chair from 8:30-5. Even placing an emphasis on the number of hours we work is kind of telling, yeah? Just a thought. I’m with you though – I think America tends to have an addiction to workaholism (it’s a word). We stress that we stayed until 7 on Tuesday and worked that weekend a few weeks back…it’s not a competition of who can stay the longest, is it? I hope not. What do you think?

    Ahhh, I’m apparently a work-a-holic.
